Teletubbies scene so terrifying it was banned around the world revealed

A banned Teletubbies sketch—titled The Lion and The Bear—has been revealed after decades.

An uncensored version of the sketch, which is from 1997, has been released on YouTube, reports The Sun.

teletubbies was a beloved British children’s television program about four colorful characters — Tinky Winky, Laa-Laa, Dipsy and Po — who roamed around a grassy floral landscape whenever they weren’t hanging out in their earth house, the Tubbytronic Superdome.

The original series ran from 1997 to 2001.

Anyone who watched the show might remember that it was funny, colourful, and educational, but typically not scary.

However, one teletubbies sketch which was broadcast in 1997 was actually so terrifying that it was banned in countries around the world.

“The Lion and The Bear” was a sketch about two cardboard cutout characters who were, unsurprisingly, a lion and a bear.

The Bear arrived first, followed by the lion, who was chasing her.

In the original sketch, the Teletubbies were terrified by the arrival of the Bear who creepily repeated the same sentence several times.

“I’m the Bear, I’m the Bear, and I’m coming!” she repeated.

After she appeared on screen, she continued rhyming in her terrifying voice.

“I’m the Bear, I’m the Bear, with brown fuzzy hair. I’m hiding from the Lion but he doesn’t know where,” she said.

Then the “scary” Lion arrived.

“I am the scary Lion, with big scary teeth. I’m scary on the top and I’m underneath,” he growled.

This dialogue was followed by a dramatic chase scene across the green hills while Laa-Laa told his fellow Teletubbies to hide.

These scenes proved to be too traumatizing for young viewers and were called out by parents for not being “age appropriate.”

One review from 1997 even dubbed the scene as “the greatest horror film of all time.”

Four years later, the BBC edited the sketch to make it more child-friendly.

In the censored sketch, many of the original elements had been changed.

Now the Teletubbies appeared excited about the arrival of the Bear. The Bear’s voice had also been edited to sound less scary and the threatening music was swapped out for something more upbeat.

Instead of being scared by the Bear, the Teletubbies now giggle at her presence.

They continue to laugh all the way through and celebrate when the Lion chases the Bear far away, instead of running away themselves.

UFC 2022: Julianna Pena plastic surgery after defeating Amanda Nunes, photos, video

UFC star Julianna Pena was rushed to hospital to see a plastic surgeon after losing a “big chunk” of her forehead in a horrific injury.

The Washington star, 32, took on Amanda Nunes at UFC 277 in Texas on Sunday (AEST). But she took several thick blows to her head and ended up looking like something out of a horror movie as blood poured down her face.

UFC chief Dana White confirmed she was immediately taken to see specialists as soon as her defeat was confirmed by the judges after lasting the distance.

“Julianna’s got a big chunk missing from her forehead,” White said.

“She’s going to see a plastic surgeon right now.”

He then admitted it could prove the end of Pena’s incredible career, which saw her crowned UFC bantamweight world champ by beating Nunes in a major shock last December.

“It takes some time to heal and then I don’t know,” he added.

“She got pretty banged up tonight, she got five or six knockdowns in the first two rounds.

“She was hurt. She needs to take some time off, relax, spend some time with her daughter de ella and then we will go from there. ”

Nunes is widely regarded as one of the greatest UFC fighters of all time. And she proved exactly why with a superb performance to regain her status as the two-weight queen at the American Airlines Center in Dallas.

The Brazilian won with a comfortable unanimous decision – 50-45, 50-44 and 50-43 – and was carried out of the cage on one of her team’s shoulders.

And then to top it off, Nunes brilliantly downed a pint of beer that she’d been desperate to drink.

The 34-year-old roared in her post-fight interview: “We are here making history again. Double champion again baby. Let’s go.”
